The original Predator was a tall black guy too.
It was destiny.
Yeah Kevin Peter Hall was badass as Predator. Can you believe Van Damme was Predator in first shootings lulz.
That thing is straight out of Game of Thrones
Saw this on facebook. Black wolf hybrid it says. Fucking hell.

This is amazing. So many, many good pictures.
To me it looks like mining with explosives. Not sure why it would start on the outside though.

Not Photoshopped. Nature sure makes awesome looking stuff.

upper two are bioluminescent plankton, it actually looks like that. Here's a video:

They light up when moved/the water is disturbed. AFAIK no one really knows why.
btw, when it was posted it reminded me to look for videos of those bioluminescent mushrooms in that BBC Africa episode to post them here, but it turns out that 1) it was staged in studio with some other fungi 2) you have to expose quite long to get them glowing like that, apparently it wouldn't look like that to the bare eye
The last one is a rainbow cloud, the ice crystals work like a prisma instead of rain drops. It's patchy because the cloud itself is.
Oh, wow. Sure tricked me.

Thx mate! I want to see that plankton in real life. Must be magical to have glowing water right in front of your eyes

Pretty softcore if you ask me.Found this a couple of years ago. Pretty amazing, huh?
We have this:
It's called Chapel of the Bones and it's in Évora, Portugal.

He was also the helicopter pilot at the end of Predator.
I don't understand why Nintendo didn't label the top of N64 cartridges.

So the movie actually ended with that horror movie cliché where the survivors end up trapped with the villain? Awesome.

That whale story is some depressing shit if true.

Interesting, the story is a bit sensationalized to tug at hearstrings but definitely based on truth. It'll be interesting if they ever track it down.

A F-1 Engine, the type that was used in the Saturn V rockets that were also used for Apollo 11.
The same type of engine, being tested

Oh man! Awesome. I just read an article about the F-1 this morning on Tested.com too. I wish I could have seen a Saturn V launch in real at least once in my life...bummer.

One of my favorite ambient artists made an EP about it (featuring guest vocals from the 52hz whale itself). One of my favorite releases of all time.

This is actually pretty cool. Sucks for the whale of course, but it's really interesting that the change in frequency in enough apparently. Somewhat like being in a country w/o knowing the language at all. Plus the melancholic concept of drifting alone through the oceans, giving out signal calls with no answer and missing all the migration patterns of the other whales...
The wiki page also mentioned that they couldn't identify the species and that it could be a hybrid / interspecies crossing (which also could explain its problem).
Plus that a documentary is coming.
What is the name of this artist. I have some his or her other art saved depicting Mega Man, but I would like to know his/her name.
Lol, yup.That image is not accurate of the actual split screen multiplayer sessions we had as kids. I fixed it.
That tv is huge.

So true. The living room at my parents house had the big TV but it was always being used (except late at night) so my friends and I would go to my room and play 4 player split screen on a small screen CRT.

I "understand" tilt shifting but I'll never really "get" tilt shifting. Awesome shot.
What's to "get"? The focus make it look like big things are instead really tiny dioramas.
They were about to rescue Nemo but it seems like Dory fell down the chute. Maybe she thought they were still inside the whale

Tilt shift photography really unnerves me, for some reason.
